my wd tv. when i push my remote left right up down, i alway get scrolling effect. if i push up than up it goes for several time, if down same thing happened. this happened when i put it in horizontal mode.

i had to put my wd tv in vertical mode to avoid this flaw to happened.

is it a faulty unit or interference of other remote since i got lots of remote for my AV system.

This speaker can do hd audio like truehd?

in the spec it can decode DD, DTS and THX.. connect the optical out of the WD TV to optical in of the speaker and it will decode it for you.. not a cheap device but if you compare with other normal HT, the capability is better in term of audio decoding.. my HT can only decode DD through fiber optic and it cost me 1.5k..

hi all, has you all tested the wdtv with any Vorbis audio file... I fail to get any audio from the box and get the message audio not supported... is there any ways to add the Vorbis codex... its a free codec and open source by the way..
